How to Celebrate National Senior Citizens Day with Your Loved One in Annapolis, MD

If you're looking for fun ways to spend National Senior Citizens Day with your loved one in Annapolis, MD, Visiting Angels can help

Here at Visiting Angels Annapolis, we have dedicated our time and resources to helping seniors across Northern Anne Arundel County, MD. As the leading provider of senior care at home, we have made aging at home possible for so many older adults who have managed to stay independent thanks to our services.

This is why August 21st is so important to us. On this day, people all over the country celebrate National Senior Citizens Day and everything the elderly population has done for us. Of course, we believe that seniors should be respected, acknowledged and celebrated every day of the year, but it is still a blessing that we recognize our elderly population every August.

A Cherished Holiday

We understand that National Senior Citizens Day is not the most popular holiday. However, even though it is not well-known as Mother's Day or Father's Day, it is still very important. It has been celebrated for over three decades, since 1988 when Ronald Reagan signed the holiday into law. He then wrote: "For all they have achieved throughout life and for all they continue to accomplish, we owe older citizens our thanks and a heartfelt salute."

Reagan also said that Americans should ensure that communities are good places where people can mature and grow old. As a provider of elderly care at home, we at Visiting Angels Annapolis can certainly get behind this sentiment.

Celebrate in Style

The best way you can celebrate National Senior Citizens Day this August is to spend it with your senior loved ones and make them feel special. On this day many restaurants and stores offer special discounts to seniors, so take your parents or grandparents out to dinner at local restaurants like Chick and Ruth's Delly or go shopping at Westfield Annapolis.

If your senior loved one enjoys spending time outside, there are many fun outdoor activities in Northern Anne Arundel County. You could go on a picnic or rent a boat out onto the Chesapeake Bay in Sandy Point State Park. You could also take the opportunity to learn about Annapolis' maritime history and heritage at The Annapolis Maritime Museum. Since it's summer, it'll be a nice time to get some fresh air while spending quality time with loved ones.

On the other hand, if your senior loved ones prefer to stay at home, consider making them their favorite meal and spending a day together. You can show your elders you care through playing a game with them, watching old movies together, looking at family photo albums or just taking time to talk to them.

A Message from America’s Choice for Elder Care

As providers of senior care at home, we understand the importance of National Senior Citizens Day. As our CEO and President, Larry Meigs says "There's no holiday that exemplifies what we do at Visiting Angels as well as National Senior Citizens Day. And so, as America's choice for elder care, we would like to wish you, your family, and all of the seniors in your life a safe and happy National Senior Citizens Day this August 21st!"
